Body scrolling

Scrolling the <body> element is disabled when an offcanvas and its backdrop are visible. Use the data-bs-scroll attribute to enable <body> scrolling.

<div class="offcanvas offcanvas-start" data-bs-scroll="true" data-bs-backdrop="false" tabindex="-1" id="offcanvasScrolling" aria-labelledby="offcanvasScrollingLabel">
